Is Any Browser At All Supporting Flash as of today?
Locked

Hi,
We are in the process of converting a Flex app to Royale. The customer was under the impression that they could afford to give us another few weeks by telling the customers to use an old version of FF, but now they’ve learned that plan is not working. Any ideas for an emergency workaround? Thanks. |

Some ideas to look into. No idea how well any will work.
- https://ruffle.rs/ <https://ruffle.rs/> - Use the Flash Player Debugger - Make a thin AIR wrapper to load the swf. Here’s a useful-looking article with some more possible suggestions: https://blogs.sap.com/2020/12/10/how-to-keep-enterprise-flash-applications-accessible-in-2021/ <https://blogs.sap.com/2020/12/10/how-to-keep-enterprise-flash-applications-accessible-in-2021/> > On Jan 12, 2021, at 9:03 AM, Yishay Weiss <[hidden email]> wrote: > > Hi, > > We are in the process of converting a Flex app to Royale.

Thanks, Harbs. I’ll see if there’s some magic there.

Hi yishayw,
Don't sure if it will last but at the moment Firefox *ESR* 52.3.0 still works for us (flash player 26.0.0.131) If you want to make a try, you can download specific version of Firefox here : https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ <https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/> Vincent. -- Sent from: http://apache-flex-development.2333347.n4.nabble.com/ |

Thanks.
Following this guide [1] which was in one of Harbs’ links we were able to get it working forf FF and Windows By editing mms.cfg under C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash and adding the following content EOLUninstallDisable=1 SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0 EnableAllowList=1 AutoUpdateDisable=1 ErrorReportingEnable=1 AllowListUrlPattern=http:* The wildcard syntax is explained here [2]. Apparently the ports cannot be specified in a wildcard.

This is a better source for wildcard syntax. It turns out that
http://* is not allowed. But http://*.example.com/ is allowed. A wildcard symbol needs at least 2 specific labels following, otherwise it’s considered too permissive.

Think that whaever is working today will stop in the next days since Adobe
said that January, 12th will block flash content. Only Adobe AIR seems to be an option but keep in mind that ExternalInterface will not work inside due to old webkit embedded inside AIR.

EOLUninstallDisable should theoretically prevent that.
